My Husband Daryl & I will miss our Breakfast and Lunch together with our other friends. Wayne was always fun to around especially when we all joked with him because he always had a come back. I loved the stories Wayne told my best story he told was when he went Yale & his son Billy couldn´t say Yale so he told everybody that his Dad went Jail I laughed every time that he told it. Wayne´s 1st favorite place to eat Ryan´s then when they closed his 2nd place was Golden Coral then they close then finally his 3rd place was The Chinese Place on Dual Highway where Ames was. We teased him about the places closing we told that he was closing them up cause he ate all the food . Wayne´s response was I probably did . Wayne loved to eat .... Well Wayne was like a Dad to me so basically the words I said to him was "I Love You Dad" he responded "I Love You To Kid" ...... Wayne was such a great, sweet, awesome, generous, caring person ..... we will never meet another person like Wayne. Wayne is not gone he is just home with God resting peacefully. RWG BUFFUT WE LOVE YOU Save that spot next to you so I can still tease you where we left off.
